Summary
This study looks at how taking caffeine in different ways—daily low doses, gradually increasing doses, or only on workout days—affects muscle growth and strength in 180 young men who don't normally drink caffeine or exercise with weights. Participants will follow two 4-week supervised training programs with a break in between. The goal is to find the best caffeine strategy for improving muscle and strength gains.
